Please, Not Just Another Dream

It has been a difficult day
And an even more difficult evening
During the day I've managed to stay somewhat stoic
But as the sun set I have found it more and more difficult to hold back
Tears that have flown like rivers from my eyes as my heart has ached
All because I am fearing that I already know what is in your heart
Realizing that you may have given up and are doing your best
To just patiently tolerate me and hoping I will go away
Yet, I still pray and hope that your heart will soften
And we will once again share love between us
Where the days will no longer be difficult
And I will no longer have to be stoic
Because our hearts will be full
With love reigning supreme . . .
Oh, God! Please, please
Make this a reality
And not a fantasy
Or another . . .
